Goulburn Mulwaree Council is a Local Government Area (LGA) of New South Wales, Australia. The council was formed as the Greater Argyle Council in 2004 as an amalgamation of Goulburn City and parts of the former Mulwaree Shire. It was renamed in 2005 following objections from the community. The Estimated Resident Population of the area stood at 27 327 on 30 June 2007.

The Council lies on the Hume Highway and the Southern Highlands railway line. It includes, Goulburn and the towns and villages of Marulan, Tallong, Towrang, Bungonia, Windellama, Lake Bathurst and Tarago. Parts of the Southern Highlands, the Southern Tablelands and Morton National Park lie within Goulburn Mulwaree.
